SAFETY INFORMATION
The equipment conforms to the following requirements set by EC
regulations, including subsequent modifications, and to the legis lation set
by the member states that implement these regulations:
1999/05/EEC Radio Directive
Warning: this equipment is destined for use in industrial environments
(Class A apparatus). In residential, commercial and light industry
environments, this apparatus may generate radio interference: in this case,
the user may be required to operate while taking appropriate
countermeasures.
The apparatus is sensitive to the presence of external electromagnetic fields,
which may reduce its performance.

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR THE US CUSTOMERS
FCC ID: UFW-Hi-Mod
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules:
Operation is subject to the following conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and
2. This device must accept any interferen ce received, Including interferen ce that may cause undesired
operation
Warning: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Operation o f this device is restri cted to law en forcem ent, fire and res cue o ffi cials, scientifi c res earch
institutes, commercial mining companies, and construction companies. Operation by any other party is a
violation of 47 U.S.C. § 301 and could subject the operator to serious legal penalties.
Coordination Requirements.
(a) UWB imaging systems require coordination through the FCC befo re th e equipment may b e used. The
operator shall comply with any constraints on equipment usage resulting from this coordination.
(b) The users of UWB imaging devices shall supply detailed operational areas to the FCC Office o f
Engineering and Technology who sh all coordin ate this in fo rmation with the Federal Gov ernment through
the National Telecommunications and In form ation Administration. The inform ation provided by the UWB
operator sh all include the name, address and other p ertinent contact info rmation o f the user, the desired
geographical area o f op eration, and the FCC ID number and other nomen clature o f th e UWB device. This
material shall be submitted to the following address:
Frequency Coordination Branch., OET
Federal Communications Commission
445 12th Street, SW
Washington, D.C. 20554
ATTN: UWB Coordination
(d) Users o f authorized, coordinated UWB systems may transfer them to other qualified users and to
different locations upon coordination o f ch ange o f ownership or lo cation to the FCC and coordination with
existing authorized operations.
(e) The NTIA/FCC coordination report shall include any needed constraints that apply to day-to-d ay
operations. Such constraints could specify prohibited areas o f operations or areas located near authorized
radio stations for whi ch additional coordin ation is required befo re op eration o f the UWB equipment. If
additional local coordination is required, a local coordination contact will be provided.
(f) The coordination of routine UWB operations shall not take longer than 15 business days from the receipt
of the coordination requ est by NTIA. Special temporary operations may be handled with an exp edited turnaround time when circumstances warrant. The operation o f UWB systems in emergency situations
involving the safety o f li fe or p roperty m ay occur without coordination p rovided a noti fication p rocedu re,
similar to that contained in CFR47 Section 2.405(a)-(e), is followed by the UWB equipment user.
Notice: Use of this device as a wall imaging system is prohibited by FCC regulations.

CLEANING INFORMATION
WARNING
Before cleaning any external parts of the apparatus, make sure
that all cables have been disconnected, including the power
supply cable. If a damp cloth is used, make sure it is not too wet,
to avoid any damage to the electrical components of the
equipment. Wait until the equipment is totally dry before
reconnecting the cables.
The Detector Duo should be cleaned periodically using a damp
cloth.
Do not use solvents or abrasive detergents.
Do not apply liquid directly to the electrical contacts of the
various connectors. If a specific spray is used to clean the PC
TFT monitor, make sure it is not flammable; ion any case, do not
spray it directly on the screen, instead, spray it onto the cleaning
cloth.

1.1.1 Assemblage instructions
First y ou have to set the rudder in its mono antenna setting. T he rudder has two
free bars and four knobs (Fig. 1-2). T he bigger ones must be screwed in vertically
to block the free bars in p lace while the little ones can be scr ewed in two different
p osition: if p laced on the inside p art of the frame y ou will get the mono or three
antenna configur ation (Fig. 1-3); if p laced on the external p art of the frame y ou
will get the two or four antenna configuration (Fig. 1-14).

Press the red button to switch on the DAD control unit (Fig. 2-9 ). T his button has
to be kep t p ressed until the blue on switch lights up . If the K2_FW software is not
activated within 30 seconds, the indicator light will start to flash. As soon as the
K2_FW software is activated the indicator light stop s flashing and ap p ears a
constant blue light. If, however, the Software is not activated within about 2
minutes 30 seconds, the DAD unit will automatically shut down. Once the
K2_FW software has been shut down, the indicator will flash for about 30 seconds
and will automatically shut down after 2 minutes.
W ARNING
DON’T CONNECT the Battery Cable to the Remote connector
found on each IDS T R antenna; IDS declines any resp onsibility for
damage caused to the system due to erroneous connections.

cap ture another remote desktop .
It can be used to p erform web conferences and p resentations.
It is easy to use thanks to its simp le and intuitive interface.
Since there are no f irewalls or other typ es of network configur ations, it is a fast
and secure means of reachin g any client host in any p art of the world. In fact, the
client only has to accep t to download a small p lu g used to p ermit the service
authentication and functionin g.
